 Founded in 2003 by Michelle Larkin, the Saratoga County Chapter of Rebuilding Together strives to rebuild 5 homes in April 2004.
The Saratoga Chapter of Rebuilding Together, is a volunteer based program to repair and rehabilitate the homes of low-income elderly and disabled homeowners in Saratoga County.
Michelle Larkin, chapter president, acting as one of the church youth leaders had previously brought groups of teens to repair homes for the elderly and low-income groups in different areas of the United States.
“It was a great experience but we knew there must be projects and people needing help in our backyard”.
Members of the Presbyterian New England Congregational Church met and affiliate with the national organization in December 2003.
The chapter plans to undertake five to seven projects each year.
